Listen "EP70. Three Songs Ain’t Gonna Cut It! The Alarming Expectations of New Music Makers"

Episode Synopsis

I hear it a lot on our Discord, from composer and artists making music, and generally from every student and artist I have ever met:

Why isn’t my music moving the needle?

Why can’t the library recognize my genius?

I submitted by 5 best songs to Motion Array or three songs to Crucial, or an album to a sync library, and I heard nothing, or got rejected.

I guess I’m not good enough, or they are crazy, or this is just a waste of my time.

Oh, don’t GET ME STARTED!
